The Pembina Forage Association was started in 1975 by local producers interested in pasture management, forage and livestock research. When the board of directors made the decision in 1994 to add crop research to the studies being done on forages and livestock, they decided that a name change was in order. This is when Pembina Forage Association became know as Gateway Research Organization or GRO.
